TAYNA 造型的 Rhodes 钢琴。
在我们为这款插件开发的第三款产品中,我们秉承了探索之初的理念:释放最自然的乐器,摒弃不必要的功能。我们还决定专注于 Rhodes 钢琴音色中略显独特、宁静而神秘的一面。这种声音不会让人感到刺激,而是随着你弹奏的每一个音符,它仿佛在平静地诉说着一个秘密,听完之后,你会想盖上毯子,调暗灯光,回味刚才听到的声音。
音调
的制作我们通过老式 Studer 录音机运行了 Rhodes 钢琴的所有样本,以获得更温暖、自然且不那么无菌的声音。TAYNA 有 1 个发音,但有 2 个版本。
第一版
罗德钢琴的经典声音,有 4 条音频线:
对于第一个,我们使用 Royer 带和 Neumann 电子管麦克风来录制 Rhodes 钢琴的声音,这些钢琴通过 60 年代的经典 Fender 电子管组合放大器以及 Universal Audio 和 Chandler Limited 的经典电子管前置放大器。
对于第二行,Rhode 钢琴的声音直接进入 Neve 1073 前置放大器,然后是 Universal Audio 的 1176 压缩器。
第三条线是原声线。这是罗德钢琴的特写镜头,由老式 AKG 麦克风和苏联带式麦克风录制。因此,我们有了沙沙作响、柔和而亲密的声音。
第四行是房间线。在我们用来自巴什科尔托斯坦的大师制作的立体声带式麦克风捕捉声音后,我们将其通过 1073 Neve 前置放大器的克隆前置放大器。最终,我们创造了一种声音,可以完美地补充所有其他线条,带来音量和临场感,但同时没有混响感。
第二个版本
您可能会对此版本中使用的管子数量感到有点不知所措。我们根据自己的喜好平衡了所有声音线,将它们连接成一条,并将其全部通过一长串模拟电子管设备,该设备由 3 个压缩器、一个限制器、一个模拟滤波器、一个电子管均衡器和一个电子管失真组成。最后,声音也通过了 Studer A810 录音机。
两个版本都有一个声音设计的 X 滑块。它的所有声音都基于原始的 Rhodes 钢琴样本。我们使用了很多盒式磁带、eurorack 模块、吉他踏板和其他模拟设备。
乐器
内部 原始延音 原始延音
的声音让人想起壁炉的温暖。但这火不是鲁莽燃烧的火,也不是你想开始跳舞的火。它是一种温和的火焰,需要不断保持活力。只有当你离得足够近时,你才会感受到它的温暖——就在那个距离,这样这把火就可以告诉你一个秘密。
声音沙沙作响,柔和而亲切。我们使用的 Fender 电子管组合放大器很旧(虽然听起来仍然很棒),因此在某些音符上您可以发现框架和灯的晃动,我们决定不消除这种情况,因为我们认为它是一种额外的颜色,可以称为“来自过去的噪音”,绝对不是“缺陷”。
风格化延音
想象一下,你在外太空盘旋。它不是今天或昨天发生,而是在 70 年代的某个时候(这很重要)。你周围只有黑暗,眼前只有太阳。但太阳虽然很远,但它的光线仍然温暖。即使闭上眼睛,你也会感受到下垂的眼睑上的温暖,让你不再感到那么孤独。设计的延音声音可以轻松描述您在特定时刻的内心状态。它神秘、黑暗、充满谐波,甚至有些地方有点咆哮。
同样重要的是要强调,声音设计中使用的所有声音和过程都是完全模拟的。我们没有使用任何一个 VST 插件,我们对此感到非常高兴。

Rhodes piano in a shape of TAYNA.
In this third for us plugin we continued to adhere to the concept adopted at the very beginning of our adventure: to release the most natural instruments without unnecessary functionality. We also decided to concentrate on a slightly unusual, quiet and mysterious side of the Rhodes piano’s sound. The sound that would not provoke, but instead, with every note you play, it would calmly tell you a secret, after listening to which you would want to settle down under a blanket, dim the light and think about what you have just heard.
THE MAKING OF TONE
We ran all the samples of Rhodes piano through the vintage Studer tape recorder for a warmer, natural and less sterile sound. TAYNA has 1 articulation, but in 2 versions.
1st Version
The classic sound of Rhodes piano which has 4 audio lines:
For the first one we used the Royer ribbon and the Neumann tube microphones to record the sound of Rhodes piano that went through the classic Fender tube combo amplifier from the 60s and the classic tube preamps by Universal Audio and Chandler Limited.
For the second line the sound of Rhode piano went straight to the Neve 1073 preamp followed by the 1176 compressor by Universal Audio.
The third line is acoustic one. It is a close up of the Rhodes piano that was recorded by vintage AKG microphones and a Soviet ribbon microphone. As a result we have sound that is rustling, soft and intimate.
The fourth line is a room line. After we caught the sound with stereo ribbon microphones that was made by a master from Bashkortostan we then passed it through clone preamps of the 1073 Neve preamps. Eventually, we created the sound that works as a perfect addition to all the other lines, bringing volume and presence, but at the same time no sense of reverb.
2nd Version
You might be slightly overwhelmed by the amount of tubes that were used in this version. We balanced all the sound lines to our taste by connecting them into one and passing it all through a long chain of analog tube equipment that consists of 3 compressors, a limiter, an analog filter, a tube EQ and a tube distortion. At the very end the sound also went through the Studer A810 tape recorder.
There is a sound designed X slider in both versions. All its sounds are based on the original Rhodes piano samples. We used a lot of cassette tapes, eurorack modules, guitar pedals and other analog equipment.
INSIDE THE INSTRUMENT
Original Sustain
The sound of the original sustain is reminiscent of the warmth of a fireplace. But this fire is not the one that burns recklessly and not the one from the look at which you would like to start dancing. It is rather a gentle flame that needs to be constantly kept alive. You would only feel the warmth from it if you are close enough – just at that distance so that this fire could tell you a secret.
The sound is rustling, soft and intimate. The Fender tube combo amplifier that we used was quite old (while still sounding great) and because of that on some notes you can spot shaking of the frame and lamps, which we decided not to eliminate as we perceive it as an additional color that could be called ‘a noise from the past’ and definitely not ‘a flaw’.
The Stylized Sustain
Imagine, that you are hovering in outer space. It is happening not today or yesterday, but at some point in the 70s (it is important). There is only darkness around you, and there is only the sun before your eyes. But although the sun is very far away, its light still warms. Even when you closes your eyes, you feel the warmth on the drooping eyelids and it makes you feel not so lonely anymore. The designed sustain’s sound can easily describe your inner state at that particular moment. It is mysterious, dark, very saturated with harmonics and even a little growling in places.
It is also important for us to emphasise that all the sounds and processes used in sound design are completely analog. We did not use a single VST plugin and we are very happy about it.
